Moshe took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, *Look, this is the blood of the covenant, which the LORD has made with you concerning all these words.*
In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying, *This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.*
For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, that those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
